  1. Lets just wait till his UFA status arrives next summer. With Pearson, Sutter, Edler Baertschi expiring. We will have to re-up Petey.... But all it would take would be Hughes doing a 2 year ($6 mil) bridge. Which would be smart on his part. Luongo would be off the books. The cap could finally be back on the rise. He could then sign a long term deal at age 24 in a good situation. And we could pay Anderson more than Pearson next summer.
  2. Well... The Leafs still owe Babs near $20Mill. They would have had to pay a lot more than $4Mill to make it worth his time. Toronto, of course. Would only agree to release him to coach for Washington if he waived much of, or Wash took over his salary. That said; Laviolette could be exactly the gunning play style required considering they still have John Carlson, Kuznetsov, Ovi, Vrana, Oshie, Backstrom... And even that said; Laviolette became a reasonable defensive coach in Nashville. But I assume he is being hired to resume his high tempo style, considering the cache of high power forwards, lack of depth behind Carlson. He certainly does not have the D he had in Nashville, and he did not bother with defense so much before he arrived in Trotz's footsteps there,,,
  3. JB can just all out play his well worn guitar. It is as fascinating as it is beautiful.
  4. Sounds Like Larkin Poe Pilgrimage to find religion. Instead they began to preach the Blues. Grabbed up ma suitcase, and took off down the road... I said farewell my Church. May the good lord bless your soul! PS; who knew u were the bad girl type Deb
  5. Can they buy out Lundqvist He would have to agree, no...
  6. I almost did not pick Bourque because of this picture... Bad dude... @ActionJax09
  7. Lets do that again, Zary Gone Mavrik Bourque, sorry
  8. Hoglander is like a little Tazzy devil. Goes through people with the puck. A smaller, but infinitely more agile / athletic Corey Perry style wise. Arvidsson, Atkinson? Thats very different than Petterssons elite passing and puck possession. Hogz is also a puck winner in the corners. I am really, really looking forward to his athleticism when he hits our roster. That speed coming out of the corner, someone else, with Motte, to hunt pucks. Skilled enough to play with the big guys!
  9. A few pints O' Molly , then being shaken down in the Hood, by a Trump loving cop might also be a factor...
  10. https://www.nhl.com/redwings/news/red-wings-sign-albert-johansson-to-entry-level-deal/c-317108270 Lots going on in the world of Oil...
  11. Oii, I Flucked someting? Asides fram mar Enkrish. Just done our sums. With a full squad next year we are sitting at $81.55 MILL salary? LOL, so close. Oh, what to do...
  12. Thanks C2X, the Rush man... And welcome Ryan McDonagh! We like both prospects we gave up! Morozov a sleeper we fear? But it was time for Edmonton to start moving up the ladder, cant be in the basement forever? This gives us Rasmus Dahlin, McDonagh & Matt Niskanen to anchor our defense in front of Igor Shesterkin! Which hopefully will welcome Alex Romanov, some combination of blue chip forwards Grig Denisenko & Alex Turcotte. Critically, we felt having a solid team before free agency could help encourage free agents that may wish to play alongside future HHOF forward Parick Kane? And of course PK deserved some support after waiving his NMC to come to the frozen tundra. Absolutely setting our sites on a play off birth in the suddenly burgeoning West!
  13. You got had. And of course, aren't even a Captain anymore.
  14. If we lost Tanev? And I prefer Tanev... I would be very interested in Kevin Shattenkirk! We could construct a pretty deadly attacking game style surrounding Hughes, Petey, Shattenkirk, Rathbone...
  15. Yeah, there is a fair chance. I still have him in CDCPuck. Traded for him at the deadline. We just did not do a good enough job here we can afford to keep him. Our fault, not his. At least he made a good quid when he was in Minny.
  16. Agree to disagree. I want someone who burns speed to play with Petey & Hughes. No sense waiting for Granlund at the blue line. I lovve GGranlunds skill. But he is not my target. Full stop!
